The PicoSure Pro Laser represents a new advancement vs your average skin rejuvenation treatment. As far as dermatological and cosmetic treatments go, The PicoSure laser offers a novel approach to skin rejuvenation and tattoo removal.
This laser therapy’s secret is its ultra-short energy pulses, measured in picoseconds (hence the name), enabling precise treatment of various skin issues with minimal thermal impact on surrounding tissues.
The PicoSure laser is a cutting-edge technology used primarily for laser tattoo removal and skin revitalisation treatments. It operates differently from traditional lasers by delivering ultra-short pulses of energy to the skin in picoseconds (trillionths of a second). Here’s what the PicoSure laser accomplishes:
Ink Particle Breakdown: PicoSure’s rapid pulses create a photomechanical effect that shatters tattoo ink into minuscule particles, which are then more easily processed and eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system.
Colour Spectrum Effectiveness: It is exceptionally effective at removing difficult ink colours, such as blues and greens, as well as previously treated tattoos that have stopped responding to traditional laser treatments.
Collagen and Elastin Production: Beyond tattoo removal, PicoSure is utilised for skin treatments. It stimulates collagen and elastin production without the heat damage traditional lasers can cause, promoting healthier, more youthful skin.
Treatment of Pigmented Lesions: PicoSure Pro is effective in pigmentation treatment and pigmented lesions, such as sunspots, age spots, melasma and freckles, by breaking down the pigment without harming the surrounding skin.
Scar Treatment: It also offers benefits in the treatment of acne scars and other types of scarring by encouraging new skin cell production and reducing the appearance of scars.
The advantage of PicoSure lies in its efficiency and the reduced number of treatments needed for visible results, whether for removing tattoos or rejuvenating skin. Its ability to deliver quick, powerful pulses minimises damage to surrounding tissue, leading to quicker recovery times and less discomfort compared to other laser treatments.
Uneven Skin tone, Skin Pigmentation, Fine Lines & Wrinkles, Tattoo Removal, Acne Scars, Sun Damage, and Age Spots.
The PicoSure rejuvenation treatment offers a distinct advantage over traditional skin rejuvenation methods by relying less on heat, thus reducing recovery time and potential side effects. This technology’s picosecond approach to skin revitalisation ensures a safer, more comfortable patient experience with quicker and more visible results after fewer sessions.
Cynosure’s PicoSure laser treats using three available wavelengths. PicoSure’s efficacy is its picosecond laser pulses, which produce a photomechanical effect, PressureWave. This effect targets skin imperfections at a microscopic level, encouraging the body’s healing response and promoting the formation of new collagen and elastin while minimising thermal damage at the same time.
In addition to the ability to use a shortened pulse width, PicoSure lasers employ a technology known as Focus Lens Array (FLA). This feature allows us to Focus increased laser power on smaller tissue areas of stubborn skin conditions to achieve more meaningful results. Results that are visible after just one treatment.
PicoSure is a revolutionary laser treatment designed to address pigmentation issues and acne scars with precision and efficiency. Unlike traditional laser therapies, PicoSure employs ultra-short pulses that operate in picoseconds, delivering energy to the skin in trillionths of a second. This rapid delivery significantly reduces thermal damage to surrounding tissues, enhancing both the safety and efficacy of the treatment.
One of the primary applications of PicoSure is in the treatment of pigmentation disorders, such as sunspots, age spots, and melasma. The laser’s high-speed pulses target pigmented lesions with remarkable accuracy, shattering the pigment particles into tiny fragments. These fragments are then naturally eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system. The result is a noticeable reduction in pigmentation, leading to a more even and youthful complexion. Patients often appreciate the minimal discomfort and downtime associated with PicoSure, making it a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
In addition to pigmentation issues, PicoSure is highly effective in treating acne scars. The laser stimulates collagen and elastin production, promoting the skin’s natural healing processes. As the skin regenerates, the appearance of acne scars diminishes, revealing a smoother and more refined texture. This collagen stimulation also provides a tightening effect, which can further enhance the overall appearance of the skin.
A key advantage of PicoSure is its versatility and suitability for various skin types and conditions. The treatment can be customised to address specific concerns, ensuring optimal results for each individual. Moreover, PicoSure’s advanced technology allows for multiple skin issues to be treated simultaneously, offering a comprehensive solution for those seeking to improve their skin’s overall health and appearance.
PicoSure is an innovative laser treatment renowned for its effectiveness in tattoo removal. This advanced technology employs ultra-short pulses, delivered in picoseconds, to break down tattoo ink with remarkable precision. Unlike traditional laser treatments, which rely on heat to fragment the ink, PicoSure’s rapid pulses utilise a photomechanical effect. This method significantly reduces the risk of thermal damage to surrounding skin, enhancing both safety and comfort for patients.
One of the key benefits of PicoSure for tattoo removal is its ability to target a wide range of colours. Traditional lasers often struggle with certain hues, particularly lighter shades like greens and blues. However, PicoSure’s advanced laser technology can efficiently break down these stubborn pigments, leading to a more thorough and effective removal process. This capability makes PicoSure a preferred choice for individuals with multi-coloured tattoos seeking complete eradication.
The treatment process with PicoSure is relatively straightforward. During the procedure, the laser emits rapid pulses that penetrate the skin and shatter the tattoo ink into tiny particles. These particles are then gradually absorbed and eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system. Patients typically notice a significant reduction in tattoo visibility after just a few sessions, with fewer treatments required compared to traditional methods.
Another notable advantage of PicoSure is the reduced downtime and minimal discomfort associated with the procedure. The laser’s precision targeting ensures that only the tattooed area is affected, leaving the surrounding skin largely untouched. This targeted approach minimises the risk of scarring and promotes faster healing, allowing patients to resume their daily activities with minimal interruption.
Furthermore, PicoSure’s versatility extends beyond tattoo removal. The same technology can be utilised for skin rejuvenation, treating pigmentation issues, and reducing acne scars. This multifunctionality makes PicoSure an excellent investment for clinics offering comprehensive skincare solutions.
At Derma Revive Skin Clinic, we offer unparalleled expertise in many skin rejuvenation methods, including PicoSure treatments. Each patient receives a personalised treatment plan, ensuring the best possible results from this fantastic device.
The clinic boasts state-of-the-art facilities, ensuring that every patient receives the highest standard of care and comfort during their treatment.
The durability of results from PicoSure treatments depends on the specific application. For laser tattoo removal, the outcomes are permanent; once a tattoo is fully erased, it does not return, although the number of sessions required can vary by tattoo characteristics. In contrast, skin revitalisation effects achieved with PicoSure—such as diminished wrinkles, less visible scars, or lighter pigmented lesions—are enduring but not everlasting. Factors like age, lifestyle, and skin care habits play roles in how long these benefits last. Maintenance treatments can help extend the rejuvenated look. Overall, PicoSure Pro offers effective and lasting solutions within its respective treatment realms, with permanence for laser tattoo removal and sustained but naturally fading results for skin treatments.
PicoSure laser can lighten skin by targeting pigments in the skin such as sunspots, age spots, and hyperpigmentation. It delivers short pulses of energy that break down the pigment, leading to a lighter skin appearance. It can also improve skin tone and texture. A free consultation with our practitioners is necessary to determine if PicoSure is the right option for you.
The experience of pain with PicoSure treatments varies from person to person, but most individuals report a sensation that is generally less discomforting than traditional laser treatments. Patients often describe the sensation of the PicoSure laser as similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. The discomfort level can also depend on the treatment area’s sensitivity, the individual’s pain tolerance, and the specific procedure being performed.
In conventional Q-switch laser tattoo removal systems, the pigment particles that make up your tattoo ink are broken up by photodynamic energy, which is mainly heat.
It is effective, but it requires up to 20 sessions spaced at least 6 weeks apart. This makes the process difficult and drawn out.
Contrarily, Picosure employs picosecond technology, which applies extremely brief, extremely strong pulses to the tattoo pigment to break up ink particles much more quickly without harming the surrounding skin. As a result, you can get rid of your tattoo in as little as three to five sessions, which requires less recovery time between treatments. That is a 60% reduction in treatments! Imagine all the time and money you will be able to save.
The PicoSure system operates using laser energy in picosecond pulses. These pulses last trillionths of a second, which is quite brief. This quick and powerful energy delivery causes a photo-thermal effect that breaks down tattoo ink into smaller particles. By using pressure waves rather than heat waves, PicoSure minimises harm to surrounding tissues, in contrast to nanosecond lasers. This focused method is a game-changer in tattoo removal because it speeds up ink removal and shortens the healing period.
Caucasian, Mediterranean, and Light Asian skin types are the best candidates for PicoSure Pro laser technology, which guarantees a secure and efficient tattoo removal procedure. The revolutionary 755 nm wavelength specifically targets black, blue, and green inks and produces outstanding results.
The Picosure Pro technique is incredibly effective at getting rid of blue, green, and shading ink. Various successful treatments conducted at DR Clinic have shown that blue ink can sometimes be eliminated in just one session with shorter wavelengths, reducing downtime.
Because of its distinct methodology and picosecond pulse duration, PicoSure lasers stand out from other lasers. It minimises harm to surrounding tissues by employing pressure waves instead of heat waves, which speeds up ink removal and shortens the healing period. This distinguishes PicoSure from conventional nanosecond lasers in terms of efficiency and safety.
